Is a Panelized home a modular or mobile home?
A panelized home is neither. A panelized stick framed home is done the exact way a standard site built home would be.

This is all done accurately in a factory and will be delivered to site for quick erection. SuperSHELL homes can be erected at any time of the year

What is the difference between ICF and the SuperSHELL wall system?
Most ICF walls can be constructed for $11-15 dollars a square foot depending on the home design and will give an R value in the mid- twenties, and if the home is relatively tight should easily hit Energuide 80. In comparison a SuperSTUD thermally broken deep cavity stud wall or panel will install for $9-12 dollars a square foot and give an R value of 44+, with the same air tightness as ICF the SuperSTUD wall system will hit Energuide 85+ . This is in the range of 2017 Net zero (ready) housing targets. A SuperSHELL wall system will go up in half the time as ICF, which helps the trades people start working inside the shell quicker, saving you days of added labor and carrying charges. SuperSHELL homes are very easy to erect. Someone with very little building knowledge can construct our system with ease.
